Quote: "Emergency services recovered the body of a man at West Auckland's Piha beach. Police communications shift commander Inspector Ian Brooker said police were called to the North Piha beach at 7.18am on Sunday. The death was not considered suspicious or a drowning and has been referred to the Coroner."

Quote: "While both the bodies have been sent to the Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences (Rims) for post-mortem, initial investigation did not show any injury marks, he ded. Ranchi GRP OC Ramnarayan Thakur said investigation is on."

Quote: "Both workers were employees of Eskom contractors - one at the still under construction Medupi Power Station near Lephalale in Limpopo, and the other at Duvha Power Station near Witbank in Mpumalanga. 'The one worker was found dead in an idling work truck at change of shift on Saturday morning at a coal stockyard at Medupi, while the other worker was found dead in his office at the Duvha Power Station on Wednesday this week.'"

Quote: "Burton Fire officials say they received a 911 call of a diver in distress near the Broad River Boat Landing around 2 p.m. Sunday of a male scuba diver suffering a 'critical medical emergency' in the water."

Quote: "A passenger on a flight into Milwaukee died Monday after suffering an unspecified medical emergency on the plane, the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office said in a news release. The passenger, Brendan D. Smith, 36, of San Diego, was found unconscious on the inbound flight from Phoenix about 12:45 a.m. After the plane landed, the Milwaukee County Airport Fire Department removed Smith from the plane and attempted to revive him, but he was pronounced dead just after 1:30 a.m."

Note: A woman, 42, just lost consciousness and died on a passenger plane two days prior too, forcing the plane to divert to Billings (Montana), mentioned in the 2016-05-07 update...

Quote: "Culley said investigators aren't sure how long the man had been dead and don't yet know if the bites killed him or if one or both of the dogs bit him posthumously."

Note: When people die from hydrogen sulfide poisoning, they may spaz out with a seizure as they're dying. That may alarm dogs and the dogs may then attack the spazzing person, and the dogs themselves may be poisoned too, which may make them go berserk as their own brains are affected, like all the naked people going crazy in recent years...

Quote: "The Georgia Department of Natural Resources had been searching for the boater since early May after 57-year-old Jerry Kornmeier was reported missing from Cocktail Cove. The day after he went missing, his boat was found adrift in open water."

Note: Methane is odorless and if this man's clothes had been contaminated with hydrogen sulfide then the fire wouldn't have left any of that to smell either. Gasoline would leave an odor, so this wasn't a fire involving gasoline. Might've just been a smoker having a cig or someone using a cellphone while sitting under a tree, who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time when some methane and/or hydrogen sulfide blew by, ignited and burned him to death. Seems quite similar to the woman who burst into flame while sitting on a park bench in coastal Flensburg (Germany), mentioned in the 2015-11-05 update). Mostly people are burning to death in their vehicles or homes, but not always...

Quote: "At least one person is dead following a car fire near Maricopa Highway. According to the California Highway Patrol a car caught fire near Maricopa Highway and Highway 99 around 11:45 Tuesday night. The CHP says the car was fully engulfed."

Quote: "The two potters had come to climb the mountain from Thamserku Trekking Agency. Police have suspected that the duo could have possibly died due to lack of oxygen."

Quote: "A team of 11 Germans are in the expedition team, Thamserku Trekking Agency said."

Note: Whew, good thing German people don't need oxygen to stay alive or they'd have died too! Er, waitasec. This seems similar to the couple who dropped dead in their home in Santa Clarita (California), mentioned in the 2016-05-06 update...

Quote: "'The bass boat was found unoccupied, with the trolling motor in the down position. In a cove, at the mouth of Skaggs Creek,' District Commander of Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife, Captain Brett Zalla said."

Quote: "Investigators discovered a man in his 20s or 30s wearing athletic clothing, Hoster said. There were no obvious signs of foul play, he said."

Note: Probably a jogger. You don't want to be jogging - or anything else - outdoors and near a ditch, canal, stream, ravine, valley or whatever, not these days, else you might end up dead just like this man and many others like him...

Quote: "The tragedy comes less than two weeks after another British woman was found dead in the bath in her hotel room in Magaluf. Samantha Johnson, 23, from Blackpool, was discovered on May 2 - the last day of her holiday."

Quote: "The cause of death remains undetermined. Police said there were no apparent signs of trauma or injury."

Quote: "State police released the name of the man found dead Monday evening in Bullskin Township, but said they are not investigating the death as a homicide."

Note: So not a homicide, no injuries, no wounds. But people in the area did say they heard 'gunshots', which means they heard small explosions, not necessarily gunshots. Could be some gas blew by, and there were some small explosions in the area, and the gas knocked this man dead then blew on...

Quote: "The body of a man was found under a bridge in Nambul river between Samurou Makha Leikai and Thounaojam. The body was today taken to RIMS for identification and post-mortem. Another body was found at Imphal river near Lamlong bridge."

Quote: "The body of a diver who disappeared last week while collecting abalone off the Mendocino Coast was found Tuesday morning, washed ashore at Moat Creek Beach, sheriff’s officials said. David Tan Le, 57, vanished May 9 while diving near the beach, south of Point Arena."

Quote: "A second abalone diver who died Monday north of Mendocino at Russian Gulch State Park was identified Tuesday as Kevin Francis Frewen, 57, of Carmichael, Van Patten said. Mendocino fire officials said other divers saw Frewen had not moved from one location, and when they swam out to him he was floating face down."

Quote: "Police are probing the death of a 15-year-old girl who died suddenly at school. The girl, who attended Pool Academy in Cornwall, was pronounced dead at the scene at around 2.15pm today. Paramedics raced to the school between Camborne and Redruth but were unable to save her life. The cause of death is not yet known but it is not thought to be suspicious."

Quote: "A man has died after suffering a suspected medical episode while driving. The man, believed to be aged in his mid 40s, was driving along the A56 towards Deansgate when he became ill at around 10.30pm on Tuesday. He lost control of the silver Ford and ploughed into traffic lights on a traffic island located at the corner of Deansgate and Whitworth Street West."

Quote: "Officials said the first death was reported after 2:30 p.m. in the 200 block of Baronne Street. A 54-year-old man was found dead by his grandmother's friend after she called the man and did not get a response."

Quote: "The second death was reported at 3:20 p.m. in the 200 block of Finland Place. A 68-year-old man was found unresponsive inside his home by his neighbor, police said."

Quote: "The third death was reported at 3:26 p.m. in the 200 block of Pine Street. Police said a 50-year-old man was found sitting under a carport unresponsive by his father."

Quote: "Officials said the fourth death was reported before 5 p.m. also in the 200 block of Baronne Street. A 74-year-old woman was found unresponsive by an employee who came into her apartment to make repairs."

Note: So the first man and the woman dropped dead in the same block. Kinda like the two men, both 52, who dropped dead in the middle of the night in separate but adjacent homes in Oklahoma City (Oklahoma), mentioned in the 2013-03-15 update...

Quote: "Police located the man’s body in a car that was parked off Denison Avenue south of Dundas Street at around 3:45 a.m. Police say there were no obvious signs of trauma to the body. The man is believed to be in his mid 40s. Homicide detectives are not involved at this point."

Quote: "The man, who was in his 20s, was found early Saturday morning next to a truck on I-10 near Houston Street. Police found evidence of an accident but said there was no visible trauma to the man's body."

Quote: "Driver’s cousin Abdul Salam said Muhammad Azam was driving the car on rent on Sialkot routes. Because of shot circuit fire erupted in the vehicle and left two people burned. Azam was driving from Taftan to Sialkot."

Quote: "At least five people, including an American national, died after they collapsed on the concert grounds in the open parking area of a mall in Pasay City early Sunday morning. A report from the Pasay City Police said that Ariel Leal, 22; Lance Garcia, 36; Bianca Fontejon, 18; and Eric Anthony Miller, 33, were found unconscious while the 'CloseUp Forever Summer' concert at the Mall of Asia open parking grounds was going on. The four did not survive. A fifth casualty, Ken Migawa, 18, who was also found unconscious and was earlier reported in critical condition at the San Juan de Dios Hospital, also passed away Sunday night."

Quote: "They just collapsed individually. They did not know each other. They were all in different places at the time..."

Quote: "More than 250 people have died climbing the mountain since 1953 and many of those were due to altitude-related illnesses."

Note: So around 4 people per YEAR die on Mount Everest on average, and here we have six dead in just a few days. That's clearly not normal. I can think of several possibilities. First, though hydrogen sulfide is a heavier-than-air gas, it's not THAT much heavier than air, and it does blow up over mountains and sometimes it gets blown all the way into the stratosphere. It's also water-soluble, so it can get into snow, then if the snow blows into your eyes, or you heat some snow up for coffee, or you get some on your hands and then rub your eyes or contaminate food that you eat, then you can get poisoned.

Secondly, a lot of methane is entering the atmosphere. Methane is a lighter-than-air gas, so it's accumulating in the upper atmosphere. That may push the oxygen layer down lower in altitude and cause more serious 'altitude sickness' than normal. If that's happening, and I highly suspect that it is, then the first place you'd expect to see the effects is, for the obvious reason, Mount Everest.

Finally, the methane layer expanding and thickening in the upper atmosphere means that even passenger planes flying at high altitudes are becoming more susceptible to fires and explosions, like the passenger plane that just caught fire and crashed into the Mediterranean Sea the other day, last mentioned in the 2016-05-20 update...

Quote: "The body of an unidentified woman was found at the Palasa railway station on Tuesday. Railway SI K Madhusudhana Rao said that the deceased aged around 26 years was found dead on the platform at 8 am, with a lump of froth in her mouth."

Quote: "Last year in Wisconsin there were 21 boating-related deaths in the state, only one of which occurred before Memorial Day. This year, as the Memorial Day weekend approaches, the state has already seen 13 boating-related deaths, according the DNR."

Note: They mention lack of life jackets. That wouldn't have helped the man who just slumped over dead in his boat at Big Eau Pleine Reservoir in Wisconsin, mentioned in the 2016-05-23 update. And anyone who gets knocked unconscious in the water may die too, life jacket or not, if their face is in the water...

Quote: "The two bodies were found on the coastal path in Petitor Woods in Torquay. David Cauldwell, 39, was reported missing from the town on 22 May. A spokeswoman for Devon and Cornwall Police said there was no link between the two bodies found at the site."

Note: Well, no link except the atmosphere, geographic location and proximity to the sea...

Quote: "Upon arrival, only light smoke was seen inside the RV, where firefighters found the man, officials say. Rescue crews were unable to resuscitate the man. Firefighters reportedly also found a deceased dog inside the RV."

Quote: "Deputy Coroner Joshua Zappone said Laura did not die of injuries from a car accident, nor could Wecht's office find any 'natural disease' that appeared to contribute to her death. Police said there were no signs of violence."

Quote: "Police say that one woman has died and 11 others were injured when a fire broke in a bus in northern Albania. Police said Friday that the fire broke out at 11:25 a.m. (0925 GMT) when the Mercedes bus was near the old bazaar in Kruja, 35 kilometers (22 miles) north of the capital, Tirana. It was taking 30 Christian Orthodox believers coming from the southwestern port city of Vlora to visit the castle of the Albanian national hero Skanderbeg, a 15th-century warrior."

Quote: "The coroner tells us Anthony Lupui, 68 of Old Forge, died of smoke inhalation after his car caught fire near Powder Mill Road. Police found Lupui's body inside the car on Thursday here in Lackawanna County."

Quote: "According to a press release from the BPD, police, fire and EMS were dispatched to Edgewood Drive just before 4 a.m. Upon arrival, police found an unresponsive woman on the garage floor. The woman, identified as 26-year-old Deanna Michelle Riggs, was pronounced dead at the scene."

Quote: "Tampa police reported in a news release that a 22-year-old Melbourne man and a 21-year-old Kissimmee woman were hospitalized Saturday. The man died Sunday, and the woman died Monday. The medical examiner's office wasn't immediately reporting a cause of death. Police didn't say why the 57 other people were hospitalized."

Note: Sounds similar to the five people who recently dropped dead in the wee hours at an outdoor concert in coastal Pasay (Philippine Islands), mentioned in the 2016-05-22 update...

Quote: "Detectives say they have been deceased for some time inside a Brookshire Village Mobile Home residence. There is no immediate indication of foul play. They say it is odd that both residents died of natural causes at the same time."
